Several people have emailed me regarding the truck on Ebay, thanking me for a more concise description and asking me to repost the info. I drove over to see the truck Sunday for myself since it sounded like a deal. Anyway:
The ad says it good great - it is not running, probably been at least 2 years since that happened. There are several missing electrical parts. The body is described as fair. It has a cab, rusted through at passenger rear. Door panel missing on at least driver's side(can't remember if other was there). No windshield regulator. The truck has a plate flatbed but the plate fender rise above the flatbed - go figure. The frame has been welded on. The front passenger fender is turned under, the truck was most likely rolled. One of the spring packs was bent. The winch is an MU-2, some cable, looks a little tired. Bumperettes have been pretty much used. There are some decent parts on the truck but don't plan on driving on the trailer. I believe this is accurate description, I am not trying to injure the seller (truth being an absolute defense). I have learned a lot from this forum and just thought I'd share the info.
